this is actually happening with a local install of gnuwin32. i'm running on
a 233 mhz dell here at work and on a 133 mhz gateway at home and they both
exhibit this problem; perhaps the bug was extant in the earlier version but has
been masked by other code until recently, or perhaps it's a nasty race
condition. yuk.
